The Disney Cars movie has inspired kids party ideas…lot’s of them.   Lightning McQueen, the rookie race car, needs more experience on and off the track.  He’s young and makes plenty of mistakes.  

This is such a fun party theme because kids love cars!  And McQueen is such a likable character.   Party supplies are easy to find and there is even a great cake topper kit so you can make and decorate your own party cake. The film begins with Lightning preparing for the Piston Cup, one of the biggest races in the US.  This first race ends up as a tie between McQueen and The King and  a rowdy car named Chick Hicks.  They must now have a rematch on a California track. 

 McQueen falls out of his race car trailer on the way to California and finds his way into a small town named Radiator Springs on Route 66.  When he gets there he is pursued by the town’s Sheriff.  During this chase, McQueen makes a mess of the small town’s roads.  He is arrested and the next day there is a hearing in front of Doc Hudson, the town judge and an old racecar himself. 

When the judge finds out McQueen is a racecar, he asks that the young racecar be released and charges be dismissed.  Sally, a lawyer, objects since the roads are now in disrepair and need to be fixed.  The Judge decides to free McQueen with the condition that he fix the roads before he can leave town.   

 McQueen is upset, but has no choice.  He is followed everywhere by the Sheriff, Mater, and can’t escape.   He soon learns that Doc Hudson is a three time Piston Cup winner who was kicked out of the race car scene after an accident.  McQueen learns a valuable lesson in this sleepy little town.  He finds out that friends are more important than racecar fame.  He finds himself in love with Sally and she loves him right back. 

The racecar trailer, Mack, comes back to find him and brings the media with him.  McQueen finds himself back on the road to California and the race world.   Come racing day, McQueen is feeling very confused. He wants to race, and he wants to go back to Radiator Springs. 

With Doc Hudson on board as his race crew chief the tie breaking race begins.  Chick Hicks begins to play dirty when McQueen takes the lead.  Hicks bangs into The King, injuring him and sending him off the track.  McQueen goes back to help The King while Chick drives on to win the race.  Lightning pushes the King over the finish line. 

Hicks may have won the race, but Lightning McQueen has won the day!  He realizes the Piston Cup, is just an empty cup. Lightning returns to the small town of Radiator springs with his new friends, Doc Hudson and Sally.    Find out more about Cars Party Ideas and learn where to find cheap party supplies, some easy kids party recipes and fun party games to use at your cars party at http://www.partyideasparade.com/cars-party-ideas.html
